good intercooler kit??

[MikeDombeck]

s14 chassis with an s15 sr20det, who makes a good kit for it. I see lots of different kinds, also, i havent seen anyone with an s14 sr20, not too familliar with the sr20, this is my first one, will the s14 sr20 kits fit the s15 sr20, thanks.

Not to sound like a prick, but most people will just flame you for not searching for something as simple as this.

I have a s14 kouki sr20, and the blitz lm intercooler. The box & instructions said that it was for both the s14 & s15. I believe that the intercooler kits for sr20 engines are more for the chassis than the series of sr. So if you had an s13 engine in an s14 chassis, you'd get the s14/s15 intercooler.

Blitz only makes the one kit I think(besides just cores), but I know that greddy makes a few different options for the sr20.

I have a used ARC fmic that is supposed to be the best one available & retails for $1700 US. I'm not using it, and might be convinced to sell it...what are you looking to spend?

didnt want to spend more than like 500 on a kit, and im looking at some electronic boost controllers, but they are pricey, and i dont wanna blow my motor so im holding off on that too.... i figure when i find the specs on what the engine can hold with stock internals i will worry about boost later, its quick enough for now.... ps, thanks for shooting my car

[S14-KOUKI-MONSTER]

thanks for shooting my car

Why, are you a member of the police?If I were shooting your car it would be more like this

[MikeDombeck]

actually, i am a member of the police. thats why i though u put that.

[ILikeMy240sx]

a police with a modified 240??? a swapped 240???? damn. haha.

Anyways, dont pull over any 240s.

For your budget, Greddy M-Spec probably fits your needs. Or you can run ebay intercooler kits which are cheaper.

[240esux]

im running a intercooler kit like the ones from e-bay, and its fine. you just dont get the fancy name though. but it works

[doridori23]

The S14 motor layout is the same as the S15 layout so the intercooler kits are interchangeable as are almost all aftermarket items for the S15 SR20det.

[MikeDombeck]

awesome, thanks... and no, i dont pull over 240's/.... the law doesnt apply to them. unless they are losing to a honda. then they get a warning...

[MikeDombeck]

with that greddy kit you were talking about, do i need to relocate the battery with that, or can i just get a smaller battery, i really dont want to relocate the battery, when i had my ca s13, it was a bad experience, i wound up getting a miata battery and leaving it under the hood... let me know, thanks

[ArcherV20]

Many people end up having to relocate or replace their current battery. Unless you get some custom piping, there just is no other way around it.

you're better off with relocating the battery because small battery is 1) expensive 2) doesn't really mount properly in the tray without hitting the intercooler piping 3) doesn't offer as much as amp as opposed to a full size battery,

After trying odessy, wesco and svr small battery I just gave up and relocated my battery to the rear.

good luck

i am using an odyessey pc680 battery and i have the mounting tray for it, works great, super light weight, dry cell, i bought it off ebay. runs great with it so far.
